About Barbara
I have a PhD from Seton Hall University, NJ in the Health Sciences, with a specialization in Health Professions Leadership. During my doctoral education, I worked as a research assistant, teaching assistant, and student teacher supervisor in Health Education.
Most recently, I was an assistant professor in the Health & Physical Education Department at Rhode Island College. I taught courses in the Public Health/Community Health & Wellness track, including undergraduate and graduate courses in Nutrition, Epidemiology/Biostatistics, Program Planning & Development, and Human Sexuality.
During my tenure at Rowan University, I constructed and taught traditional and online courses in both the pedagogy and health promotion tracks. These included Basic Nutrition, Health & Wellness, Stress Management, Structure & Function of the Human Body, Kinesiology, Exercise Physiology, Administration of Health & Fitness Programs, and Safety/First Aid courses. I also collaborated with faculty members on research projects involving health behavior, health education teaching methodologies, health promotion, and technology in the classroom. As evidenced by my teaching evaluations, students and faculty felt I demonstrated exceptional teaching effectiveness and scholarly activity, which served the department well.
Prior to working at Rowan University, I was employed as an Assistant Professor at Delaware State University and Keystone College. Along with teaching traditional and online health, communication, science, recreation, and business-related courses, I served on multiple committees and played a vital role in the development of institutional and academic practices. During that time, I also engaged in many research endeavors with colleagues from various institutions.
I have had a variety of work experience in the college setting over the past 14 years, including academic, athletic, and managerial positions. I have been published in the field, presented at major academic conferences, and written grant proposals for health and technology-based programs. While attending The College of New Jersey (TCNJ), I was a graduate assistant for the Health and Physical Education Department and served both as a player and assistant coach for the nationally ranked softball team. I obtained a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology Education and a Master of Education degree in Health Science from TCNJ.

Teaching has always been central to my role as a faculty member. I strive to present information that is current and relevant to students’ lives, and yet challenges them to reach beyond their current understanding to develop new perceptions of content. My planning for course content is an ongoing process. After course goals and objectives are identified, I design in-class activities, assignments and exams that will provide evidence of meeting the course objectives. Next, content implementation is planned to logically flow over the series of class sessions with each lesson building on the previous one. Most class sessions include a variety of teaching strategies that cater to the seven learning styles (visual, aural, verbal, logical, solitary, social, and kinesthetic) where students must be present to fully engage in the learning. In all my courses, students learn course content and apply the material taught through active engagement with their classmates and me, which requires they be engaged physically, cognitively, and emotionally as learners.
My philosophy and pedagogy are based primarily on the Socratic method and Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences. Socrates engaged in questioning of his students in search for truth. His philosophy involved getting to the foundations of his students' and colleagues' views by asking continual questions. I consistently ask students questions to allow them to critically think their way through a problem by employing the material they have already learned. This allows them to retain concepts much better because they use their own logic and thought processes to arrive at an answer on their own. To optimally support this process, I incorporate Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences. Gardner notes that there are seven separate human intelligences that account for cognitive competencies: Linguistic, musical, logical-mathematical, spatial, bodily- kinesthetic, interpersonal, and intrapersonal. To cater to the different intelligences, I teach using a variety of modalities, which include lectures supported by power point, online videos, student presentations, participation activities, and demonstration. My classroom is a space where my students and I are accountable for learning. We all bring experiences that contribute to what is learned. In this way, the classroom experience becomes one of many possibilities, with new perceptions and acceptance of differing thought processes.
I continue to seek ways to methodically move through my lesson objectives and remain responsive to student reactions in class. My lesson plans serve as a foundation, a roadmap of intended direction, yet they allow for the exploration of new paths that might emerge. I frequently adjust the pace of my lectures based on student feedback of their understanding of the material presented. If they do not understand a concept, I will not build upon it until an adequate understanding is obtained. If this is not possible for all students, I continue to move forward but consciously revisit the concept as it applies to the new material. My lectures therefore are structured yet flexible, which creates a flow to my presentation that moves at a pace appropriate for both the students and me.

Dr. Fralinger was one of my professors at Delaware State University between 2010 and 2011. She has a great ability to keep students engaged in assignments and she is good at finding new methods of teaching to help reach all her students. She has proven to be humanistic when personal issues arise. She motivated me to go after the job you want and not what's easy. Thanks to her support I was hired by the state straight out of college and I am still a here. She is highly qualified, educated and motivated to see others succeed.
One of my favorites, she goes above and beyond for her students and she is able to work with any type of learner. You will not be disappointed with her knowledge. Highly recommend!
Barbara taught multiple classes on mine in college. She is extremely passionate about health and wellness and very knowledgeable as well. She is a great mentor and teacher. She is very friendly and always available to help students in need. I would highly recommend Barbara!
